Brentford (H) Sat 21st Sept @ 15;00

[Havocc]

Back home for the visit of the Bee’s. Selling Toney and the nasty injury to Wissa means their attack is not as dangerous as usual.

Thomas Frank has playing well after a narrow loss to City and victory in the cup against the O’s.

Let’s hope we put our finishing boots on for this one.

 

[Glenjamin]

They're a well organised unit, but Wissa is a loss in general for them but also a huge loss to Mbeumo. They link well so hopefully that will help us.

I don't know what we do really. Play some football would be nice I guess!

 

[Dave]

For Ange, this needs to be a nice handy win. No drama, no bollocks. Just a comfy 3 points.
Could do with Solanke getting one too to get him going.

 

[J.spurs]

Thought they were excellent against Man City. Wissa's injury is a killer, but they will still be a headache.

 

[Havocc]

Off we go! Another trip to the big smoke

Frank is a good manager and will probably play a low block and hope to hit us on the break or score from a set piece

It would be good if we could get an early goal

Ange picking a front 5, right out of the Ossie playbook! Love it

 

[Strikegold]

Midfield suspect again, mobility and steel lacking without at least one of Sarr or Biss.

Trouble is, this is the PL.

4 clean sheets from 37 is it ?

 

[ClemFandango]

Spence comes on in the week and has a great half. Changes the game and gets sent straight back to the bench.

Love it. We just keep the ball. Use the inverted fullbacks and that midfield will be all ours. Madds will be more withdrawn, which might be good. Good options on the bench, I'm fearful and excited.

Exactly how it should be.

 

[ClemFandango]

Fucking hell .. 23 seconds

 

[ClemFandango]

Get in !!

 

[J.spurs]

What a response. Swarming after the early goal.

 

[J.spurs]

Good game, this. Both sides really getting stuck in.

 

[ClemFandango]

What a goal ..

 

[Yid]

What a game...

 

[Yid]

This is entertaining...!

 

[J.spurs]

obviously Vicario looked silly getting caught on the ball there, but Udogie was just watching. Has to open up as soon as VdV plays the ball back to the keeper.

 

[ClemFandango]

Cracking half of football. More in the second half please

Indeed. This is supposed to be fun, after all.

 

[Dave]

This is more like it. Delighted for both Solanke and Johnson. Need to keep it up now...CMON!!!

 

[ClemFandango]

He could be in bother here ..

.. or not. Very very lucky

 

[ClemFandango]

Game set and match .. great goal

 

[BrooklynYid]

Great finish by Maddisson, but has one of the most punchable faces I've ever seen. And Vicario needs to tone it down. The players do not eespond to his yelling. But good performance. We badly needed that.

You’re quite right about Vicario shouting and yelling especially as he’s hardly Mr Perfect himself

Good shot stopper though

Decent win and we go on

Busy week

 

[Havocc]

Our press was relentless today, led by Solanke. Everyone was together in the press which led to all the cjances

Home crowd were getting heated for Son, his overall game was pretty poor until his assist for the 3rd

Great day out, now heading to Brighton for some Korean food

Perhaps use Sonny more as an impact sub nowadays?
